AMD confirms FSR 4 release plans for RDNA 3 APUs/iGPUs

AMD confirms FSR 4.1 release plans for RDNA 3 integrated graphics

AMD has officially confirmed that FSR 4.1 support is coming to AMD’s RDNA 3 integrated graphics solutions (iGPUs). That means that AMD Ryzen CPUs with RDNA 3 graphics will support AMD’s FSR 4 upscaler.

Jack Huynh, their SVP and GM for Computing and Graphics, has stated that AMD is working on “lightweight machine learning models” for RDNA 3 APU players. Note that AMD has not mentioned RDNA 3.5 integrated graphics solutions. However, there appears to be no technical reason why a lightweight FSR 4.1 model for RDNA 3 APUs wouldn’t work on RDNA 3.5 APUs.

With FSR 4.1, AMD promises much higher-quality upscaling results than with FSR 3. This gives gamers better visual results. For APUs/integrated graphics, AMD is working on a less taxing upscaling model to lessen its performance impact. This should make FSR 4.1 more performant on these mobile, bandwidth-constrained devices.

For RDNA 3 APU players, we’re developing lightweight machine learning models to bring FSR 4.1 to even more devices.

What about RDNA 3.5?

While AMD has confirmed that FSR 4 support is coming for RDNA 3 iGPUs, AMD has not explicitly mentioned RDNA 3.5 support. While we expect AMD’s lightweight FSR 4.1 model to be compatible with RDNA 3.5, AMD has not explicitly confirmed this. Honestly, AMD should clarify this as soon as possible, as this directly impacts AMD’s Strix Halo devices (which feature large RDNA 3.5 iGPUs), and AMD’s RDNA 3.5-powered gaming handhelds.

You can join the discussion on AMD’s upcoming “lightweight” FSR 4 model for RDNA 3 APUs on the OC3D Forums.
